Risk Level: MEDIUM

Full Analysis

MEDIUM W011: Third-party content exposure detected (indirect prompt injection risk).

Third-party content exposure detected (high risk: 0.85). The required runtime workflow calls an external web API at https://aws.amazon.com/api/dirs/items/search and then parses and returns attacker-controlled JSON fields like headline/headlineUrl from that response (scripts/aws_whatsnew.py:83-113)—these headlines are outsider-authored free text coming from fetched public web content.
